title: Fabrication of Ni-Nb-Sn metallic glassy alloy powder and its microwave-induced sintering behavior.
abstract: In the present study, we prepared Ni59.35Nb34.45Sn6.2 metallic glassy alloy powder by an argon gas atomization process. Microwave (MW)-induced heating and sintering was carried out by a single-mode 2.45 GHz MW applicator in the separated magnetic field or electric field using the obtained glassy powders. The structure and thermal stability of the sintered glassy alloy specimens were investigated.
